I need some help on this ASAP!!

Mckenzie and Cara both tried to find the missing side of the right triangle.

A right triangle is shown. One leg is labeled 5 and the other is labeled 13. A right angles is labeled in between the legs.

Mckenzie's Work Cara's Work
a2 + b2 = c2 a2 + b2 = c2
52 + 132 = c2 52 + b2 = 132
25 + 169 = c2 25 + b2 = 169
194 = c2 b2 = 144

Square root 194 equals square root c squared. Square root b squared equals square root 144.
13.93 ≈ c b ≈ 12

Is either of them correct? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

the answer is

[tex]5 ^2 + 13 {}^{2} = c{}^{2} [/tex]

25+169=c squared

194=c squared

c= the square root of 194 or 13.93

I don't know what the b squared part of their answers are, so I would say neither are completely correct
